Horrible mistake at WPT Foxwoods
From cardplayer.com
Allen Kessler stopped by to describe a situation that he had never before seen in a $10,000 championship event. Five players saw a flop with three diamonds, and everyone checked to the button, who bet. There was one caller, and everyone else folded. The turn card was a blank, and it again went check-bet-call. The river card was a fourth diamond, and this time the early position player bet out for $1,000, and the player on the button moved all in. The other player called immediately, saying, "I have the ace-high flush." Shocked, the player on the button said, "No, <i>I</i> have the ace-high flush. The early position player showed Ad-10d, and he flopped the nuts. The player on the button showed -- Ac-4d. He misread his hand! Unbelievably, he lost his entire $10,000 in starting chips on a hand that he should have folded on the flop. Remember kids, there's no penalty for double-checking your cards! Wow. What a gutwrenching feeling that must be. |

Re: Horrible mistake at WPT Foxwoods
I did that one time at a game when I throught I had a straight, remebering the previous hand as the one I had right now. Fortunatly when I moved all in he folded. But this was after playing for 6 hours straight.

Re: Horrible mistake at WPT Foxwoods
I can empathize with him a bit. I made a misread in a big tourney although it didn't cost me my stack but it provided a moment for the rest of the players at the table trying to figure out the two donkeys playing the hand.
I raised from the button with A8o and the BB smooth called. The flop came 9,4,2 rainbow with a check, check. The turn was a J and again check,check. The river paired the board with a 9 and again check, check. The BB flips up AA and I'm about to say NH and throw my cards into the muck but give them a second look before I do. I had A9 not A8 and sheepishly table my hand. The whole table first looks at the guy who never bet with AA and then at me who checked top pair on the flop and trips on the River. I told the table I misread my hand while the other guy offered no explanation for his play but later told me he was trying to trap. Weird things happen at the tables. |
